When you need to transport 22 barges – each weighing nearly 3,000 tonnes – half way around the world, you're going to need a pretty sturdy ship. And they don't get much sturdier than the Blue Marlin, one of the most extraordinary crafts ever to sail the seas. The incredible ship can carry 75,000 tonnes. Rather than the usual cargo of toys, TVs and coffee, it carries other ships and oil rigs. When the US Navy needed to give their stricken destroyer USS Cole a lift home, they called on the Blue Marlin. And when the Australian Navy wanted an aircraft carrier brought from Spain, only the semi-submersible heavy lift ship would do.
The Blue Marlin's dimensions are eye watering. It is 712 ft long and 138ft deep – and has a deck the size of two football pitches. It reaches a sedate top speed of 13 knots, powered by a gigantic 17,000 horse power diesel engines, with a crew of 24. Steering it is said to be like controlling a floating office block. The barges pictured above – which weigh a total of 60,000 tonnes - were exported from Korea to be completed in Rotterdam. Some were destined to be river boats, others were off shore construction vessels. No crane in the world is big enough to lift these sorts of cargoes onto her deck and so she has an ingenious trick up her sleeve. The deck is submersible and can disappear under 13 metres of water when her ballast tanks are pumped full of water. Boats, oil rigs and ships can then be floated on before the deck is raised again by emptying its ballast tank.
In order to carry the barges, a specially designed set of cradles was added to the Blue Marlin. The barges were stacked up and then floated on the ship a few at a time. Its biggest cargo was a BP oil rigThunder Horse 16,000 miles from Korea to the Gulf of Mexico. The one billion dollar rig is the largest offshore structure in the world and weighed 60,000 tonnes.

Con-Lash Supplies, which for over 30 years has been managing and delivering consumer goods from around the world for consumption on ships travelling the globe, runs a busy material handling operation at its strategically located Tuas warehouse in Singapore. Its operation includes the storage and despatch of goods in ambient and cold room conditions.
Con-Lash required a fleet of reach trucks capable of maximising the space available at its warehouse which added a number of benefits including; stability, ease of use, safety and reliability. It also wanted to deal with a material handling equipment provider capable of offering the right level of service to keep its reach trucks in optimal condition for a busy schedule.

Barge

A barge is a flat-bottomed boat, built mainly for river and canal transport of heavy goods. Some barges are not self-propelled and need to be towed or pushed by towboats. Canal barges, towed by draft animals on an adjacent towpath, contended with the railway in the early industrial revolution, but were outcompeted in the carriage of high-value items due to the higher speed, falling costs, and route flexibility of rail.

Etymology

Barge is attested from 1300, from Old Frenchbarge, from Vulgar Latinbarga. The word originally could refer to any small boat; the modern meaning arose around 1480. Bark "small ship" is attested from 1420, from Old French barque, from Vulgar Latin barca (400 AD). The more precise meaning "three-masted ship" arose in the 17th century, and often takes the French spelling for disambiguation. Both are probably derived from the Latinbarica, from Greekbaris "Egyptian boat", from Copticbari "small boat", hieroglyphic Egyptian

and similar ba-y-r for "basket-shaped boat". By extension, the term "embark" literally means to board the kind of boat called a "barque".

History

After being together for three weeks, the girls entered the song "Aloha Mr Hand" into the Open Youth Category for under-18s in the 1996 West Australian Music Industry Awards. The four 14-year-olds (at the time) won the $1,000 prize, and came to the attention of manager Andrew Klippel.

In 2001, now renamed Lash and signed to Festival Mushroom Records, their first two singles ("Take Me Away" and "Beauty Queen") reached the top 40 Australian ARIA Singles Chart, but did not sell enough to validate the large investment by their record company. "Take Me Away" saw Lash nominated for the 2001 ARIA Music Awards for "Best New Artist - single" (it was won by The Avalanches).

Barge

A barge is a flat-bottomed boat, built mainly for river and canal transport of heavy goods. Some barges are not self-propelled and need to be towed or pushed by towboats. Canal barges, towed by draft animals on an adjacent towpath, contended with the railway in the early industrial revolution, but were outcompeted in the carriage of high-value items due to the higher speed, falling costs, and route flexibility of rail.

Etymology

Barge is attested from 1300, from Old Frenchbarge, from Vulgar Latinbarga. The word originally could refer to any small boat; the modern meaning arose around 1480. Bark "small ship" is attested from 1420, from Old French barque, from Vulgar Latin barca (400 AD). The more precise meaning "three-masted ship" arose in the 17th century, and often takes the French spelling for disambiguation. Both are probably derived from the Latinbarica, from Greekbaris "Egyptian boat", from Copticbari "small boat", hieroglyphic Egyptian

and similar ba-y-r for "basket-shaped boat". By extension, the term "embark" literally means to board the kind of boat called a "barque".
